NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported Monday, via a source who has spoken with Plaxico Burress, that he will visit the Steelers for a physical and workout.

Burress hasn't been able to catch on with another team after spending last season with the New York Jets. A first-round draft pick by the Steelers in 2000, Burress spent nearly two years in prison on a gun charge before his release in June 2011.

Burress, 35, remained a capable red-zone target with the Jets, but it was clear he'd lost considerable speed from his heyday with the Steelers and New York Giants. He previously expressed befuddlement over his inability to sign with an NFL team this season.
